Intention to Deceive

I’ll tell you what you need to hear

I’ll show you what I want you to see

Incapacitating you with fear

Repeat the lies until you agree

Never mind what the facts are

I made a story that needs to sell

Journalism is an afterthought

Keep you stupid, so you will not rebel

Opposing independent thought

With the intention to deceive

Misinformation is the plot

With the intention to deceive

Your mind was an open book

Until I told you what to think

I’m gonna fill it to the brim

With lies so your mind shrinks

Submit to my train of thought

And I’ll take you for a silly ride

Fit your mind into my mold

Constructed to misguide

Opposing independent thought

With the intention to deceive

Misinformation is the plot

With the intention to deceive

Force feeding lies

Open your eyes

The formula: hysteria

Followed by amnesia, gullibility, and phobia

The formula: hysteria

Followed by amnesia, gullibility, and phobia

I’ll tell you what you need to hear

I’ll show you what I want you to see

To make you paralyzed with fear

While I let you think your mind is free

Never mind what the facts are

I made a story that needs to sell

Journalism is an afterthought

Keep you stupid, so you will not rebel

Opposing independent thought

With the intention to deceive

Misinformation is the plot

With the intention to deceive

Force feeding lies

Open your eyes
